Design Engineer

ABOUT CODERABBIT

CodeRabbit is the leading AI code review platform, trusted by more than 17,000 customers and 150,000 open-source projects, conducting over 2 million code reviews each week. We build the symbiotic partnership between developers and AI that makes shipping fast software safe again, reviewing every pull request, IDE change, and CLI commit so teams can move quickly without breaking things.

We are a fast-moving, well-funded company, fresh off a $143M Series C at a $1.5B valuation — building Agentic Change Management, the control layer for software changes created by humans and agents. As AI writes more of the world's code, the bottleneck moves from implementation to judgment and helping human judgment scale is exactly the problem we exist to solve.

ABOUT THE ROLE

We're looking for a Design Engineer who lives at the intersection of design and code. You will prototype, build, and polish the experiences that make CodeRabbit feel like a trusted teammate rather than noise — across IDEs, Git platforms, the CLI, and the web, surfaces with few established conventions, where the right interaction pattern hasn't been invented yet.

Whether a developer trusts an AI-generated suggestion enough to merge it often comes down to execution: the pixels, the motion, the copy, the milliseconds of latency, the edge cases. This role owns that last mile. It is perfect for someone who thinks like a designer but builds like an engineer — or vice versa.

This is a high-ownership role working directly with design, engineering, and AI teams to define what's possible and then ship it, fast.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Build production-quality UI. Ship polished components and interactions that make complex code analysis feel effortless and earn developers' trust in AI-generated suggestions.

• Prototype rapidly. Turn concepts for emerging AI experiences — real-time review, conversational feedback, agentic workflows — into working prototypes in hours, not days, to validate...
